Today, today
oh what to say?
nothing unusual
strange or exciting
I went to school and came home
and then did more nothing
I'm searching so hard for meaning
Are these days just a waste
if nothing I'm filling them with
seems at all real?
Thank god for this site
and for not allwoing them to break me
I accredit you my strength
I keep thinking of him
he finds his way in between every line
every song i over analyze
but perhaps that's because
there's more space
than actual words
why do come here? he asked me
I'm searching for answers
it's cool to hear everyone out
but then they ruin it for you
a song means whatever you think it does
not anyone else
but its not like anyones forcing, I replied
you can pick and choose ideas as you please
and finally he was silent
I wonder what he thinks of when he listens to Dave
does he think of me, the way I do him?
practically strangled with memories with each new note
or is that just me a good musician has been ruined for?
I want him to see this
see the stories they tell
but I know he's too stuborn
and I know even if I could get him to look
he wouldn't let it phase him
he's too strongly weak
to let himself bleed
I let him read my story
he's the only one in the world who knew
he never read more than the first pages
i should have asked him why
I'd like to pretend it was just too painful to see me naked in every line
not that he didn't care
he told me I was like both my characters
Mary, so brave and defiant
Teresa, so meak and broken
Somehow it is those words that I hold onto
when I'm grasping for breath
I still love him but
I'm not sure that's a safe thing to do
I'm also not sure
it even matters at all
to anyone but me
when I just can't fake it
